By the way, Tang, the baseball team that I am coaching this summer just played at Columbia. Times Square is an absolutely miserable place. You can keep NYC.

NYC rules. Times Square is a tourist trap, the rest of the city kills it. Great food, drinks, culture and energy. Sports teams suck...but what are ya gonna do?

Way too busy. I like Hickville, USA.

I don't live in NYC? I live in Central Kansas, remember? I have been to Times Square the same amount of times that you have.

Have you thought about moving to Liberal? :)

That is because you are not one of them. There should not be a cap on income. I think 35% of $1Bn is plenty....$350mil.

If you support socialism then move to Sweden.

I wouldn't mind moving to Sweden or Finland... talk to people from there. Quite nice.

The social programs aren't bad either. Just saying.

You may join bad luck. May you two live happily ever after.

Do you disagree? BTW BL isn't a socialist... I am...

How many Scandinavians do you talk to?

More than you think. A pizza in Norway costs $50. Its a small and fairly homogeneous country so their form of Gov't works. But again what was the last modern discovery that came out of Norway? Socialist countries are not as "fun" as you think.

Really? Who told you that? I agree. Socialist governments work. Thanks for saying that.

Norway is a very small country. They invented the paper clip apparently. That's cool. IDK why you put 'fun' in apostrophes since I never said 'fun' when describing Norway, Sweden, or Finland. The social programs are really good and they benefit the society and people I have talked to seem to like it a lot.

Yeah, but you have said that you would love to move to NYC.

They do. Did you not see all the people stating McHale needs to be fired. LOL.

They represent a large portion.

How many people think McHale should be fired? What did he even do?

He was seen at a Trump rally. Nothing more. Google it. Multiple outcries for him to be fired.

How many is multiple? Maybe 100? 200? Trust me, there are just as many right wing nutjobs as there are left wing nutjobs.

One KC sports radio talk show host tweeted in support for McHale's firing and it got (as of yesterday) 4,308 likes and lord knows how many retweets. That's one person in Kansas City.

It's a lot more than 100-200.

How many are against Kaepernick getting a job in the NFL? More than 4,308.

Kaep is just not good enough and only fits certain systems.

That's not true. If Kaep had not done the protest, he would be on an NFL roster right now.

Here are some people signed over Kaepernick:
Matt Schaub
Kellen Clemens
EJ Manuel
Aaron Murray
Garrett Gilbert
Mark Sanchez
David Fales
Matt McGloin
TJ Yates
Matt Simms
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Austin Davis
Zac Dysert
Dane Evans
Luke McCown
David Olson
Josh Woodrum
Jay Cutler
Thad Lewis
Keith Wenning
Brad Kaaya
Joe Webb
Brock Osweiler
Ryan Nassib
Brandon Weeden
Brian Hoyer
Josh Johnson
Matt Barkley
Mike Glennon
Tom Savage


Not to mention UFAs.

At what $$ and how much would Kaep want?

I'm not an expert on contracts, but after a while Kaep's asking price would go down. I would take Kaep for whatever money over Brad Kaaya.

Why? He only plays if your starter gets hurt and he brings drama? IDK.

To me what he did was disrespectful but not a huge to do. What Vick did was 10000000x worse and Vick played again.

The brings drama part is why I wouldn't do it. If the drama wasn't there, I would take Kaep in a heartbeat.

What Vick did is worse but Vick didn't receive the public outcry that Kaep did.

Actually he did. But he apologized and served time so people forgave him I guess and he was an excellent player. Kaep has nothing to apologize for but he is not very good so he is not in the league.

Really? I don't remember the amount of politicized backlash to Vick that there was to Kaep. Either way Kaep is definitely good enough for the NFL.

Not to be a starting QB and backup QBs that cause locker room discord are not welcome. You didn't see all the Peta people going ballistic over Vick? Whaaaat?

backup QBs that cause locker room discord are not welcome

THAT'S MY POINT.

I don't give a **** about PETA. They are a disgrace to humanity.

That is because you are not one of them. There should not be a cap on income. I think 35% of $1Bn is plenty....$350mil.

I wouldn't mind moving to Sweden or Finland... talk to people from there. Quite nice.

The social programs aren't bad either. Just saying.

tang, the reason why socialism works in Sweden is because Sweden has a small population that is ethnically homogenous, speaking almost universally the same OFFICIAL language, 66% belonging to a single church (The Church of Sweden...)

Are you catching on? Comparing and contrasting the USA to Sweden isn't even apples to oranges...it's apples to electronics.

I didn't compare and contrast the USA to Sweden, or Finland, or Norway. All I said was that it works there.

Although I am curious as to why any of those differences is a big deal? More population=more taxpayers, ethnicity is pretty irrelevant when talking about social programs, there are ways around language and religion...

A pizza is not 50$ in Norway.

Maybe he meant 50 Krone?

50 Krone is $6.18 USD. Makes sense if it was Krone.

tang and I are in lockstep with PETA. They actually stated that lobsters are people too. ASPCA or Humane Society at least want to do something positive. PETA is a collection of nuts.

Surprisingly enough, Liberal KS is one of the most conservative places in the region.

The more you know.

Their mascot is a really offensive Indian caricature as well. So there's that.

My point is common language, heritage, religion, skin color, etc. lends itself more to collectivism. Great diversity, as we have in the US, lends itself more to individualism. Collectivism and socialism go hand in hand. Individualism and socialism are oil and water.

I was being sarcastic. I live in KC and have been to Liberal many times. Lawrence would be more your style.

PETA members throw paint better than Kaep throws a football.

I thought smetana was Russian...lol, was playing off the ole CCCP handle.

Technically, he was born and lived in the Hapsburg Empire but who gives a crap about Austria.

Haha, I was talking about the creme fraiche.
